Summary:
We've been getting a lot of documentation PRs opened against `0.29-stable`, `0.30-stable`, and so on, instead of `master`. This is because our doc site is also based on RN release cuts, so clicking on the "Edit on GitHub" links on a document will take you to the markdown source for that release branch instead of the latest doc on `master`.
See #9095 for an example of such a PR.
In this PR we edit the link to say View on GitHub. Though it may not prevent PRs from being opened against a release branch, removing the "Edit" CTA may help in this regard.

Summary:
**motivation**
Lots of people does not sure what to do after a PR.
common questions like:
* should I keep rebasing this PR to the latest master branch ?
* should I keep squashing all commits in a PR into single one?
This may clear it a bit and makes people less nervous 😱
**Test plan (required)**

Summary:Explain the **motivation** for making this change. What existing problem does the pull request solve?
> When vjeux [asked me how the documentation changes looked](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/6423#issuecomment-195608638), it wasn't obvious to me how to build and view them locally. So, I thought it might be a good idea to add instructions to the contributing document.
I was able to run the website locally when working on PR #6423 but am no longer able to now. I have since updated my local repo with a `git pull`. I've deleted the node_modules directories in both the root and website folders, rebuilding both. Still, I get the following error when I run `npm start` within the website directory (problem with the ES2015 compiling?)...
```bash
**/react-native/website/server/convert.js:134
.filter(key => key.startsWith('RN_'))
